Hi there, I’m Steve –

Running a small business is no small task — and I’m here to make it easier. As a Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor and experienced Business Analyst, I help small business owners take control of their finances, streamline their systems, and make data-driven decisions that lead to sustainable growth. I love working with small business owners, solopreneurs, and growing teams across industries like:

  • E-commerce & Retail
  • Trades & Construction
  • Professional Services
  • Creative & Marketing Agencies
  • Health & Wellness
  • Startups & Consultants
  • Restaurants

With over 10 years of experience in working in and managing restaurants, I’ve helped restaurant owners spend less time stressing about numbers and more time doing what they love: serving great food and providing great experiences. Whether you’re a startup or an established business, I tailor my services to match your operations and goals.

My background in bookkeeping, system setup, and strategic analysis, can help bridge your everyday financial activities with your broader business objectives. If you’re new to QuickBooks or seeking to optimize your current workflow, my goal is to simplify and ease your financial management—allowing you to concentrate on what you excel at: growing your business.

  • Friendly, clear communication — no accounting jargon
  • Experience with business-specific workflows
  • Reliable, accurate, and timely bookkeeping
  • Flexible service plans (weekly, monthly, or project-based)

My goal is to make your financial life easier so you have more time and clarity to grow your business.
